Short Stories gallore!

Well, I hope your "brainstorming" time in class has you off to a good start - squirrels and all! For Tuesday, please bring in journal entry, with the following information. (You can fill in each catagorie with a few sentences):

Original: (write what you are keeping from the original story here)

Main Character: (tell me a little about the main character of your story here. what is important about him? Make sure the details you focus on, support your plot.)

Setting: (Tell me where your story is, when your story is, and maybe how it looks).

Plot: (Draw or outline a plot diagram here, including all the peices of the plot we learned earlier. This part might change as you begin writing, especially in it's fine-tuning, but having a good overall picture to begin with, will help guide your imagination toward something outstanding!)


Also, please read the last chapter posted on the Homer site. I also will have a rough outline of the entire Odyssey, like the one we looked at in class (except maybe with some better art :D ), so keep checking for that.

Have a fabulous weekend!

Regarding the cool chart of the Odyssey plot, which I promised to post... I'm experiencing some technical difficulties. I hope to get that up eventually!
